Two Communications on the Clark Case

A Statement by Dr. Clark

December 9, 1944

To the Owners and Editors of THE PRESBYTERIAN GUARDIAN:

As a matter of personal privilege, and because you have addressed a public appeal to me personally, I desire space in your columns to protest against your prejudicial' editorial, "Issues and Convictions." You say, "If his position has been misrepresented in any material fashion, we sincerely trust that he will be able to make this plain to the presbytery and to the church at large." I judge that this has already been made plain to the Presbytery, for after hearing in the examination essentially the same arguments that fill the Complaint, more than three fourths of the Presbytery voted to sustain the examination. The Presbytery has now elected a committee to answer the Complaint. I have every reason to believe that this committee will make plain to the church at large that the Complainants make use of false statements and serious misrepresentations, and that they fail in the Complaint as utterly as they failed in the Philadelphia Presbytery.
